not much but very busy lately

Edited August 3, 2014 by thamier

[thamier]

hey everyone, whats new?

 

i been lurking around and wishing i was closer to being done so i could actually show you something.

so i been trying to squize in as much building and sculpting as i could, but it takes time, and slowly, sooo slowly its nearing completion.

 

ill add a pic here as a little teaser for whats comming.

and altough it wasent planned in the beginning like it or not my defiler really resembles a imperial knight in size and siluete, soo i decided to just go with it, will even make the weapon mounts compatible and interchangeable with the imp knight kit.

 

and going to aim to make it magnetizable too.

what else what else.. oh yeah gonna build a big chain axe as a extra weapon just incase ill decide to use it as a count as imp knight.

 

still need to fix spikes for the spine and do trim on the crotch plate, fix the head and jaw.

and lastly the weapons and elbow joints.

 

here is a a little sneak preview of defiler bits

what else, i have a bunch of projects i wanna do but lacking the bits to complete them, been trying to do some bitz swap locally but it seems they dont have the bitz im looking for, maybe i should donsome more cross contry bitz swaps with krautscientist again ;)

 

that or beg for bits.

i have a valkyrie i got secondhand but its missing a few things like the roof and a few small bits.

 

also got the urge to start battlefleet gothic again, gonna make a chaos fleet in my legions colours if i can get a hold of bfg ships.

 

thats all so far.

[KrautScientist]

First of all, it's amazing to see an update from you: and one regarding a very interesting project, no less ;)

 

That Decimator/Defiler/Knight/whatever is already looking extremely promising! Once again, it's brilliant how you manage to use visual elements that appear on official GW models as a ways of making the model believable!

 

As for trading bitz, I'd be totally up for it ;) Just PM me if there's anything you need.

[Brother Ambroz]

First off, Typhus looks great! Second, remember Rome wasn't built in a day so take your time to make it look good and make sure you have fun with it too. Good to see something from ya mate.

[sunspear]

Really nice stuff here! Very good job on everything. I love to see conversions, especially with chaos. I will be following this. One quick question, are those templates by subtle discord still available?

thanks, it is comming along nicely, and i use the gw models for refrence, using my favorite parts of the design in my creation.

that way it will hopfully also fit in better with my army ;)

 

i have a looooong list of bitz im looking for everything from terminator backs and ig guardsmen legs to battlefleet gothic ships ;p

thanks tanith, i think i might add some more grey, some on typhus's face, as for rome i know i know, so far its taken me over 3 months to get this far, and i am enjoying it.

but its also really nice to get something completed.

that and im looking forward to the feedback from you guys.

[KrautScientist]

You should definitely post some WIPs now ;) Seriously, seeing how it all comes together is very much part of the fun!

[thamier]

thanks ks you saved me, i feel its very close to being done now, weapons still missing and the head is still fairly rough sculpt, but other than that is close.

[thamier]

okay here goes, and i would really like to hear what you guys think, this is my prototype and hopefully i can have some cooys cast in resin when its done.

whats missing is the head, its still avery rough sculpt, and the crotchplate needs a going over trimming the trim, and then fixing plates for the upper arms and weapons.

 

so straight from the darkmecanicum

next to a marine for size compareison but its a tiny bit taller than aimp knight

roughly marked up with red were to file away for teethand shape

side under the pauldron, the arm rotates back and forth and can swing up and out the lower part can rotate, teasting the armor plate there same with the havoc launder mount at the bottom.

so any comments thoughts ideas?

[KrautScientist]

Okay, now I am a)really happy that we convinced you to post some WIP pictures and b) absolutely blown away! Mate, this thing will be the absolute pinnacle of daemon engine design when it's finished! Absolutely, stunningly amazing! :)

 

A couple of thoughts, if I may:

 

- again, my favourite parts is that it takes visual cues from at least four or five existing daemon engines, making it look all the more plausible and believable! It was the same with your Obliterator sculpts, and I think this really works towards making it look like something GW would actually release.

 

- I realise the head is still very WIP, but it's already great! Now only add some augmetic eye lenses into those eye sockets, and it'll instantly be 100% more evil and sinister!

 

- You may want to consider getting hold of some Imperial Knight arms, fiend arms or something similar at some point, though: It seems like the original defiler arms will only take you so far -- although I'll reserve judgement until I've seen a more advanced build of whatever it is you're planning ;)

 

Anyway, simply awesome! :)

thanks kraut, on the head i need to work on the kaws and add teeth and fix some more details have already taken apart a smoke launcher but looking for more fitting bits before mounting them as optiks, gonna try and get a knigt kit so i can make my own weapons but knight compatible, and once its done hopefully ill be free to paint up a squad of these! MUWHAHAHA!!!

[ElDuderino]

Whoa

[Forté]

I'm not allowed to write what springs to mind :tu:

[thamier]

Whoa

I'm not allowed to write what springs to mind :tu:

I imagine it would be both sigged and meltaed.

[Biohazard]

He looks awesome! For eyes the smoke launchers that come with the chaos tank bits are great for using as optics. I did on my Lasher Fiend

Yup:)
